Hello (long post),
I have 2 150 watt metal halides and 2 36 watt power compacts and 2 normal fluorescents (1 actinic and 1 daylight bulb).
My question is two part, first when the 2 fluorescents are on the tank looks very nice white / bluish. However once I turn on the MH/PC combination the tank go's very bright however quite yellow. Is this due to a need of replacement bulbs? What bulbs should I get?
Right now I don't have any coral just around 180#'s of live rock on a 4" sand bed. I would like corals however have somewhat limited myself by adding non-reef fish. At this point I would just like to get the lighting right so my rock will take off growing and convince me to add pretty stuff not mean stuff.
Tank specs are:
90Gallon, Sump (micron sock), Protein Skimmer, Magnum 350 canister with micron filter.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post and I appreciate any and all suggestions to my setup.
Dan
